Star Wars: Episode IX is probably the most anticipated movie of 2019, although it has a lot of competition from Avengers: Endgame (2019); thankfully they are spaced over half a year apart. There has been a lot of speculation over the past couple of weeks as to whether we will see a first glimpse of Episode IX during the Super Bowl, which will be held on Sunday, February 3, 2019. Kickoff is scheduled for 6:30 pm ET, and will be broadcast on CBS in the United States.

The rumors that I have seen suggest that Disney has purchased three 30 second spots for Episode IX, which together will comprise a complete teaser. While the trailer for Solo: A Star Wars Story (2018) premiered at the Super Bowl last year, it served as a place to generate interest especially considering the huge amount of negative stories and attention that Solo was being bogged down with. And with the release of the teaser during the Super Bowl, it also served as a trailer announcement, as the first full trailer dropped the following day. Considering how well known the core Skywalker Saga is, and there is no bad press surrounding the production of Episode IX, I tend to think that Disney would be better off spending the money on other films. But I could be wrong.

When will we see the first full trailer?

The first trailer for Episode VIII – The Last Jedi was released during Celebration Orlando, on April 14, 2017. It specifically dropped on Friday afternoon just after it premiered at Celebration Orlando. Celebration Chicago takes place this year from April 11 to 15th. If they follow the same pattern, then it will likely drop on April 12, 2019 at around 2 PM Eastern. To me, that sounds like a good bet. But if it does show up next week, I’ll be ready.

I just added my custom 5.1 mix for Brightburn (2019) created from the Dialogue, Music and Effects tracks. This one was a lot of fun to do as there was a lot of different types of sounds, and not like a lot of trailers where there is constant loud music from start to end. To me, this was more of a small movie. Head over to the Brightburn (2019) page to check it out. I hope you enjoy it. Brightburn hits theaters May 24, 2019.

I uploaded a new encode of Trailer 1 for Avengers: Endgame (2019). I received some feedback from a visitor to the site – Shu Ming Liu (your’re famous now!) who pointed out that the shot at 1 min 17 seconds (the aerial shot of the Avengers HQ) looked like crap. Well, those were not his words, but that is what it looked like. I am happy to say that it now looks much closer to the master. Thank you Shu Ming Liu for pointing it out. If the quality of that scene bothers you, then I suggest you download the re-encode. I will say, however, that there may be some trade offs in making that shot look better. My initial inspection didn’t pick up any issues. Any feedback between the two is appreciated, and will help me with decisions moving forward. My aim is to provide the best quality possible for those who appreciate more than YouTube can offer. Your feedback is helpful in ensuring that I deliver my intended quality.

Well, this Marvelous week continues, with the first trailer for the new Avengers movie! (Spoiler Warning!!) We know that some of our “dead” heroes come back from Thanos’ snap, seeing that Spider-Man: Far From Home is coming out later in 2019, but what role will Captain Marvel play? Interesting that she did not appear in the trailer, unless I missed her. Speaking of Spider-Man, the first trailer for Spider-Man: Far From Home (2019) will arrive this weekend.

Head on over to the Avengers: Endgame (2019) page to get the first trailer with multi channel audio: Lossless PCM 5.1, DTS 5.1 and AC3 5.1
